2D metal laser cutting provides a faster and more efficient process than manual cutting through the use of state-of-the-art computer numerical controlled (CNC) machines. Summit Steel & Manufacturing uses a broad range of the latest flat laser cutting equipment with fiber, C02 and neodymium lasers that deliver exceptional cycle times working with all different types of materials and gauges. It’s a flexible, versatile solution where complex, multi-dimensional cuts and contours are required for a finish that’s free of distortions and requires little to no post-processing.
Our expert metal laser cutting services are utilized by industries throughout Pennsylvania, the East Coast and across the nation for producing high-precision parts for a broad scope of rapid prototyping, engraving and manufacturing purposes including:
- Electronics and computers
- Piping and sheet metal
- Printed materials and commercial packaging
- Numerous other industries and applications
WHY USE LASER CUTTING?
How does 2D sheet metal laser cutting provide so much more effective cutting than other methods? We have already discussed how laser cutting is much more efficient and precise than manual cutting, but you may be aware of other forms of metal cutting that are available. Although there are other metal cutting methods, laser cutting is almost always preferable.
For example, plasma cutting has long been a popular cutting method, using high-temperature ionized gas to melt the metal. However, this process produces more waste, as the excess molten material is blown away rather than vaporized as in laser cutting. Plasma cutting also produces more heat, which can distort the material you are cutting.
Another option some people consider is water jet cutting, which uses an incredibly highly pressurized jet of water to cut the material. While it does not have the problems you may encounter with plasma cutting and can cut very thick material, it is much slower than laser cutting.
CUSTOM CNC LASER CUT PARTS
Our mission is to provide state-of-the-art laser 2D cutting for manufacturers and engineers requiring precision-cut parts. With a minimum cut thickness of .001 inches to thick sheet laser 2D cutting to 2.00 inches, we’re fully equipped to handle your needs. We also offer four-axis rotary machining, five-axis and high-speed flat cutting, as well as laser cutting of tubes, angles and a variety of shapes.
